A lot of hours were spent on this one, waaaay over 10, probably the 15 -20 mark spread over 2 weeks, never have i had to reposition any pony as much as these two... i won't be lying when i say i had to redraw celestia 8 times compared to Chrysalis's 5,

"Chrysalis: Soon, my Changeling army will BREAK through, FIRST we take Canterlot, and then, AAAAALLLLL of Equestria!

Celestia: No!, You won't!, You may have made it impossible for Shining armour to perform his spell, But now you have so FOOLISHLY revealed your true self, I can protect my subjects, FROM YOU!"

They took the battle to the skies, Celestia giving chase, Determined to Protect her kingdon from the Evil Tyranny of the Queen of the Changelings, added a sketchy background because i wanted them to fight in front of a window XD

I just have to say, man, the way you draw Chrissy is simply incredible No punches pulled, you draw her out to be the truly terrifying (yet still beautiful) fiend that she is I'm especially amazed at how much detail you put into those wings, and into her mane and tail
